If you're fascinated by the mystical nature of storms, chances are you'll find The Cloud by Richard Clarkson extremely intriguing. The Cloud is a hanging cloud structure that simulates a natural storm while simultaneously functioning as a Bluetooth speaker system.
Clarkson's The Cloud system creatively fuses together natural phenomenons with advance forms of technology. The Cloud is a suspended structure shaped like a cloud made from cotton ball-like material. It has the ability to change colors and play music. In addition, The Cloud comes with sensors that trigger a storm-like experience every time you walk by. The white spongey material turns from white to dark gray and blue to replicate an oncoming storm. With all the lights off, The Cloud system becomes that much more powerful to watch. The best part is this speaker system can bring a storm to you without all the rain.
